I finally got my jeep. Picked up a 1999 WJ with 115K. Very clean, 1 owner. 4.7L, Quadra Trac II. It has a new radiator and a dealer installed upgraded exhaust system. Initial repairs were the ignition key lock, and a rear brake job.
I have changed all the fluids, engine, transfer case, both differentials.
The engine is smooth, except for a ticking noise that started after I changed the engine oil. It goes away, after about 20 seconds. I tried Rotella 5, 10-30. Might try something different on the next oil change.
Needs shocks and I think I'll just go with Monroe's since this is my daily driver.
